Re : My RC10 Gold Pan Runner Build

[binjaloo]

This is a great site and I would like to get some info regarding RC10 Gold Pan Runner builds. I have a "A" Stamp chassis and would like to use the same B4 Hub Set Up with B44 CVAs. Most of the builds that I see here in the forum shows a B4 Hub/B44 CVA setup with Dyonotech Klein Arms. I was wondering if I can use the standard RC10 Gold Pan rear arms and still use the B4 Hub and B44 CVA without any distance issues. Any info would help.

you have to use the stock arms with if you want the b4 hubs.

I've made a little bit of progress on my RC10 Gold Pan Runner. I used the the stock front axles and I was able to fit the B4 front yellow wheels without any modifications. I also got a new set of black anodized nose tubes and black battery cups which apparently are still available from towerhobbies.com (part no. ASC6321 and ASC6334 respsctively). I am still waiting for the B44 Rear Hubs to beceome available as they are in back order. I am using Associated B4 Rear Hubs so I can fit the newer wheels and tires. Below is a picture of my current buld progress:

Got my B44 Rear CVAs. This is just a mock up but I also added the rear B4 Yellow wheels with Jconcepts Bar Codes Rubber. Taking cues from other builds in this forum, I also added a couple of shims inside the hub and a B44 Rear Wheel Spacer. Everything looks to be in order and ready to go. Below is a picture of my build with a Protech Body Shell from my other Shelfer. I cannot duplicate the Box Art Orange as this was painted with Tamiya Can Paints (frost yellow backed with orange backed with black). I plan to use a viper body (ASC6121) and a high downforce wing to match.

In the background is another one of my shelfers. A Kyosho Turbo Optima which I recently gave the body a brake fluid bath.

This is looking very nice, you have a cool clean gold runner.
